Flowering
Dahlia ‘Frost Nip’ is simply stunning in summer with its enormous raspberry-pink flowers tipped with white, reaching up to 25cm across. Held on tall stems, the fully double flowers are superb in the border or as cut flowers, flowering well into autumn. Picking the blooms for the house will encourage the plants to keep flowering.
How To Grow
How to Grow Dahlias:
Plant dahlias in a sunny spot with well-drained, fertile soil enriched with compost or organic matter. Space plants 30-60cm apart depending on their final size, ensuring good air circulation. Tubers should be planted 10-15cm deep with the crown upwards, while plug plants and potted dahlias can be planted at the same depth as in their pots. Water thoroughly after planting and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Pinch out the growing tips when plants are 30cm tall to encourage bushier growth and more flowers. Stake taller varieties early to prevent wind damage. Regular deadheading promotes continuous blooms, and feeding every 2-3 weeks with a high-potash fertiliser enhances flowering. Lift tubers after the first frost, dry them, and store in a cool, frost-free place for winter, or mulch deeply in mild climates to overwinter in the ground.
